Description
In his first film role since 2004's Million Dollar Baby earned him a Best Directing Academy Award®, as well as the year's Best Picture Oscar®, screen legend Clint Eastwood returns, directing and starring in Gran Torino.
As Walt Kowalski, a recently widowed, Korean War vet, the iconic star pulls no punches as an embittered, iron-willed man seething with resentment against a changing worldpersonified by his new neighbors, a family of Southeast Asian immigrants. But after Walt catches the neighbors' sons trying to steal his Gran Torino, a vintage car the retired autoworker helped build himself, the boy's family insists he work for Walt as penance, initiating an unlikely friendship that will change both their lives forever.
A gritty, powerful and, at times, violent portrait of contemporary America, Gran Torino builds to a shattering climax that is both startling and deeply moving.
Special Features include two behind-the-scenes featurettes: Manning the Wheelthe meaning of manhood as reflected by the American car culture; and Gran Torino: More Than a Carvisit Detroit and the Woodward dream cruise, an annual vintage car event where buffs describe the unique bond between men and vehicles.
